I'm developing am income tax calculator, and everything is going swell. Currently the user can type in their adjusted gross income (AGI), hit submit, and learn the amount of income tax they would pay, their tax rate, and their income after tax.
I've played around with the events to get the submit button to work in FF, IE, Chrome and Safari -- and I've gotten the enter button to work before with some stock code, but here's the catch: when the user presses enter, i want the focus to leave the input box. I don't care where it goes (submit button, I suppose?) but i need it to leave the input field so the onfocus="clearText(this);" event can fire when they return to type in a new income.
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function TotalGrossPerYear() {
var Calc = document.NetIncome;
if (Calc.InputRad[0].checked) {

I use the Validation plugin [URL] and do like this:
frmzip: {
required: true,
digits: true,
remote: zip.php,
},
I have two fields; zip and city, I validate zip with remote and it checks against a list if the zip is valid, but i want it too:
Check if the zip is valid
Return true if it is valid and return the city of the zip and paste it in the city-input...
Of course I have a database/array/list with all zip and city's.
How can i validate x inputs with name array like init_date[] with this plugin [URL]
$('#form').validate({
rules: {
year:{required:true,number:true},

I am building a registration form and have some javascript that checks the forms user input. This is all activated when the submit button is pressed and the forms onSubmit event is called and runs a function.
I have tested me functions and even when it returns false the form still submits?
Im not sure how i can stop it submiting even if it returns false.
Then onSubmit called this function:
function subForm(theform){
if(checkForm(theform)==false){
alert("it is false");
return false;
}
alert("it is true");
return true;
}
checkForm is working and is throwing alerts when certain criteria is not correct in the form, and then i will get an alert "it is false" so i know that the script is running until then, but the form will still submit?
I am trying to get my validate to work with my onsubmit, and if the validator passes then go to the acknowledge page. For some reason it wont validate, I have moved the function all over the code to see if it would work somewhere else. Now the onsubmit isn't also going to acknowledge either. This has been very frustrating since I debug it with firefox and get a function error but I can not find the error.

I can't seem to get this to work. I have a form here: [URL] When the user hits sumbit, I want it to validate first, and then IF the validation passes, THEN have an alert window come up with an OK button. Why isn't it working? The validate function ends like this:

I have a order form that adds up all the input boxes (45) and then totals them using function updatePrice() (which works) Im trying to have the output as XX.XX and cant figure out how to get the number from the id=txtTotal into the function round() and return the formatted number to txtTotal.

So I am trying to validate many input fields inside a form before I send it off to mysql.
The page link is: [URL]
I am 99% sure it a JavaScript issue and I am a beginner with JS. My JS code is as follows:
function validate(form)
{
//Pull values from form
var email = form.user_email.value;
var confEmail = form.conf_email.value;
[Code]....
I'm trying to change the color of the labels according to what input field is wrong. It seems to loop through and keep my labels black. It shows the email red for a millisecond though.
Is the validation plugin able to validate an input only instead of a whole form?I mean, is this lign correct :
$("#InputID").validate(
rules: "required"
);

my question is how do you validate Chinese character input?
On submitting the form, I'm trying to place the items of a listbox in
a hidden input. It doesn't work. Is my approach correct?
I have a form like this:
<form name="myForm" onsubmit="return listBoxContents(this.Form.sel1)"

and a function as below:
function listBoxContents(sel1)
{
var selLength1 = sel1.options.length,i,values1=''
for(i=0; i<selLength1; i++)
values1+=sel1.options[i].value+ ",";
document.myForm.hiddenName.value = values1;
return true;
}
and the hidden value is as follows:
<input type=hidden name="hiddenName" value="initial">
I am trying to create a form that writes text to an HTML canvas when submitted. Eventually, the function that writes the text will be more complex. The problem is the text only appears briefly, because the function is only called once when the form is submitted. I want the function to be called continuously after the form is submitted.How do I do this? I have had very little experience with JS.A lame (failed) attempt...

I have two frames. Frame "search" contains a search form specifying
an onsubmit action like so:
<form ...
...
</form>
The other frame contains a <img ... where
the perform_search function is defined as follows:
<script language="JavaScript">
function perform_search() {
var frame = parent.frames.search;
var form = frame.document.forms.mainForm;
form.submit();
}
</script>
Now, when hitting Return in the search form, then foo() is called
fine. But when clicking on the <img ...
in the other frame, foo() is NOT called.
Is expclicitly calling foo() from perform_search() the only way to do
it, or is there a magic incantation that might do what I want?
II'm running Joomla 1.5.23 and I've been trying to get validation on a component's form fields. In the header section, I'm properly loading the validator.js file, which contains the following:
//function to check empty fields
function isEmpty(strfield1, strfield2) {
strfield1 = document.forms[0].firstname.value
strfield2 = document.forms[0].lastname.value[code]....
My problem is that even if all fields are empty it will go to the next step.
I want to validate my form so i call validateForm() using onsubmit of the form. It displays the alert but doesn't cancel the submit.
function validateForm()
{
var x=document.forms["contactform"]["name"].value;[code].....
I have been searching high and low and I can't seem to find an answer. I am new at JS and I have created an form and when I click the on submit button it resets all the fields. The fields are always blank after I click reset. I have been working on this for 6 hours.
Code:
<head>
<title>H10</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="H10.js"></script>
[Code]....
It just keeps resetting when I click Submit. I see for a millisecond that the total appears but then disappears along with the amount I put in the input text box.
I have created a simple form for uploading text files.You can see two versions of this it at: http:[url]....The form created with static HTML, works fine in current versions of the major browsers.However the dynamic form, fails (only) in IE.It fails because IE does not send the file at all when the form is submitted.

2.The other is the timer expires.the exam finishes and the user's result should be displayed.This one is giving me a problem.
When the timer expires I want to run the onsubmit() function to assign values to hidden form inputs ,but I am unable to do so.How do I do this.Everything else with the timer function is working fine. Only a snippet of the actual code is given here,because the rest of it is ,I believe,irrelevant to the discussion.

I just noticed that if I use a "submit" button the "onSubmit" function call
will be invoked. But if I use a button to call some other javascript and at
the end of that javascrip I do something like "form.submit()" the "onSubmit"
function call will NOT be invoked. I thought that was wierd. Can anyone
shed some light? Here's a small example:
<script type="text/javascript">
function subform()
{
document.frm1.submit();
}
function checkform()
{
alert('checking form');
return true;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="frm1" method="post" action="" onSubmit="return checkform();">
<input type="text" name="txtname"><br>
<input type="submit" name="btnsubmit" value="submit"><br>
<input type="button" name="btn1" value="go" onClick="subform();">
</form>

I am about to submit a form and I need to call two functions onsubmit. But I guess this cannot be achieve? Code:
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to time how long it takes one of my form scripts to run _after_ I press the submit button.
My php (to start the 'stopwatch' running) looks like this:
<?
$mt = explode(' ', microtime());
$script_start_time = $mt[1] + $mt[0];
?>
So I want to have an input field that looks like this:
<input type='hidden' name='script_start_time' value='$script_start_time'>
BUT $script_start_time must be populated at the exact moment the submit button is pressed, and not when the page where the form is first visited. Which is why I need a client side solution.
I am using Form in a PHP Code - which post the results to another external - application, and i would like to save some recordes in DB (when someone use the submit button) before moving on to the external-app. how could i do this in a javascript or is it possible?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am in a JavaScript college class and right now we are learning about form validation, well before server side validation, and I am having an issue with validating the field if the user updates it and hits submit again. The red .setAttribute function is not removed. My code is below, please excuse the noobness I am displaying here.
[Code]...
I have created web pages that do client-side form validation using the
onclick directive. E.g.,
<form action=other_page.cgi method=post>
Enter your age: <input name=age>
<input type="submit" value="" validate_form()">
</form>
where validate_form() returns true or false depending on whether the
user entered a valid age.
This does what I want almost everywhere (e.g., Firefox on FreeBSD,
Safari on Mac, IE on Win2000) but recently I have become aware of an
exception: IE on WinXP.
On WinXP's IE, validate_form() is called (and will display an alert box
if that's that's what I coded), but whether it returns true or false,
the form is submitted. (Then we do the server-side validation and throw
up an error page, but I'd rather catch this client-side.)
So the question I have is: why is WinXP so weird about this? Previous
versions of IE didn't do this.
While looking into this, I've discovered I can also do an onsubmit check
in the form tag, e.g.,
<form action=other_page.cgi method=post
validate_form()">
Is onsubmit new or has it been around for a while? Can I trust old
Mozillas on Linux to do the right thing with it? Windows is actually a
small portion of the target audience, but I like to make things work for
everyone.
Does it make a difference if the form is submitted to the same page or a
different page? I don't have ready access to Windows XP to test this
out.
